Default Removing over spray from exhaust?

How do I get over spray off my exhaust pipes? I also have some on my painted frame rail.

Suggestions?

Lacquer thinner, steel wool or scotch brite in that order.
If you're not fussy about it, silver paint over the blue!

Sounds easy enough. What about the over spray on my painted frame?

I had some heavy primer and paint on mine. I used aircraft stripper on a rag and it wiped right off. No need for scotchbrite, steel wool, etc.

Get the wheel off, clean it up and repaint the frame, and the fender well. It can look good when the frame is painted, then mask the frame and fender and get some undercoating spray for the fender well. I can't STAND over spray where it shouldn't be.
